Usually, 1 tab/ day should do it. Some take 2, but I think that's too much. Up your sodium and potassium while you are on it. For more info: http://www.angelfire.com/linux/roids/Lasix.htm ------------------ [email protected] ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Better yet, get some aldactone, it's much easier to control your water loss than Lasix. ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I use it quite alot....Start out with 1 tab(40mg) per day first thing in the morning and see how it goes....I usually drop 2 tabs a day, morning and noon.....as Kleen said, up the potassium and sodium....only place I've ever gotten cramps were the calves and feet....

Never used or considered using lasix before but what wondering how long the user must remain on @ 1 tab/day before he should consider coming off. Is it simply when you are pleased with the water retention or are there more serious issues of staying on too long. I hear it exerts its effects very quickly and a short time is all thats needed?

Duchaine mentioned that it was best used via IV. He mentioned that doing it this way was more predictable. I haven't tried this myself as my only experience is with aldactone. If you want to go the IV route then start dating a nurse or research the subject more so you can do it yourself. SS ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

my friend a nurse and said 20mg of lasix a day orally should not do any harm as long as you keep your potassium high.he said you will just pee a lot.one of his girlfriends been taking them everyday for over a year and k=no problems as of yet ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Ok Ranger, lets say im going to be competing in a show, and i have Lasix on hand to rid my body of excess water. How would the best way be to take this? If the show is on a Saturday, should i take 1 on Thursday, 1 on Friday, and MAYBE 1 on Saturday? ------------------ EMAIL: [email protected] ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

EZE, I think a supplement works better, since I'm sure your going to be on a low carb diet during....Hardcore, I'd try a tab a day for a week or two, two days prior to contest, drop 2 tabs a day....The injectabe Lasix is some very dangerous stuff, my Father and I killed a 2,000lb. draft horse with it by accident, trying to gant the bastard down for a weigh in....Never used that stuff, still remember the horse I guess....
